Holidaze.

Christmas is now three days behind us, New Year's Eve is just a few days away, and I -- I am spent. Underneath the malaise, however, I feel something burbling to the surface. C-could it actually be...the desire to scrap?

Unfortunately, this span of a week between the two big holidays requires that I make a few feeble attempts to clean the house first. Grawr. This just confirms my theory that there is nothing like a ridiculously messy house to stimulate the always-ill-timed scrap mojo.

Should I plunge into my December Daily or the December Dishes?

Should I put away the stacks of paper and ribbon used to wrap gifts, or should I pull out even more?

Should I wash the dirty laundry or (further) stain my jeans with paint and mist?

Choices, choices.

Alas.

Not feeling the creative push? Knock something off a table. Stack a few items haphazardly. Toss something at the trash can and miss. Let the dog roll around in the mud outside and come running indoors. Make a lengthy to-do list with nothing remotely imaginative on it.

Use Your Words

"Word-work is sublime...because it is generative; it makes meaning that secures our difference, our human difference -- the way in which we are like no other life.

We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives. "
